Simone Biles is unsure whether she will compete at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.

For now, the most decorated gymnast of all-time has other priorities and is listening to her body, too.

“I’m really trying to enjoy life, to spend time with my husband (Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens), go support him at his games, live my life as a woman,” she said in an interview with French sports daily L’Equipe published on Tuesday. “I’ve accomplished so much in my sport. For me to come back, it would really have to excite me.”

The 28-year-old American will be in Los Angeles for the Games but does not yet know in which capacity.

“Whether on the apparatus or in the stands, I still don’t know that,” she told L’Equipe. “But 2028 seems so far away, and my body is aging. I felt it in Paris.”

The American gymnast won three gold medals and a silver at the Paris Olympics, taking her career tally to seven Olympic golds and 11 medals overall.

But her body cracked from the strain.

“I went back to the village, I took the elevator and my body literally collapsed. I was sick for 10 days,” she said, before recounting another experience. “The other day, we were sprinting in the garden with friends, I had aches and pains for three days. So, I honestly don’t know. We’ll see.”

Brock Purdy reported to the start of the offseason program for the San Francisco 49ers, while star tight end George Kittle stayed away from the start of the voluntary program.

Purdy and Kittle are both entering the final years of their contracts and are seeking extensions, leading to speculation about whether they would report for the offseason program.

Purdy said at the end of the season in January that he hoped to have a new deal done before the start of the offseason program. That hasn’t happened yet but he chose not to hold out as he tries to help the Niners rebound from a 6-11 season.

Purdy has made less than $1 million a year for his first three seasons and is set to get a small raise in 2025 to about $5.2 million under the league’s proven performance escalator for making the Pro Bowl last season.

The 31-year-old Kittle is entering the final year of a five-year, $75 million extension that he signed in 2020. He is owed $14.4 million in base salary for this season. The tight end market got re-set this offseason when Arizona signed Trey McBride to a $76 million, four-year extension for the highest annual value for any tight end.

New York Jets general manager Darren Mougey said the team will exercise the fifth-year contract options for cornerback Sauce Gardner, wide receiver Garrett Wilson and edge rusher Jermaine Johnson. Gardner, Wilson and Johnson are considered foundation-type players for the new-look Jets, who have a new GM in Mougey and coach in Aaron Glenn.

A judge denied a preliminary injunction sought by four college football players who had sued to gain an additional season of eligibility.

Judge Matthew Houston said the evidence was “not sufficient” while ruling from the bench following a three-hour hearing in North Carolina Business Court. That came in response to similar lawsuits filed by former Duke football players Ryan Smith and Tre’Shon Devones, as well as another from former Duke player Cam Bergeron and ex-North Carolina player J.J. Jones. The hearing involved all four players.

Their complaints sought to prevent the NCAA from following its longstanding policy of having athletes complete four years of eligibility within a five-year window.

Attorneys for the players argued they warranted an additional year because of circumstances presented in the filings, which had claimed their careers were derailed by injuries, ailments and personal difficulties. The athletes claimed the loss of potential earnings — $100,000 to $500,000 — stem from rules that now allow athletes to profit from using their name, image and likeness (NIL).

Mike Patrick, ESPN’s first play-by-play announcer for its NFL coverage, has died. He was 80. Patrick’s physician and longtime friend sent a text to friends of the longtime announcer that Patrick passed away in Fairfax, Virginia, on Sunday due to natural causes.

Five members of Canada’s 2018 world junior hockey team pleaded not guilty and the jurors who will hear their sexual assault case were selected.

Dillon Dube, Carter Hart, Michael McLeod, Cal Foote and Alex Formenton were charged with sexual assault last year for an incident that allegedly took place in June 2018 when they were in London, Ontario, for a Hockey Canada gala celebrating their gold-medal win at that year’s world junior tournament.

McLeod is facing an additional charge of being a party to the offense of sexual assault.

Carlos Alcaraz said he is feeling fine but will wait on results from medical tests to decide whether he will play at the Madrid Open. The third-ranked Alcaraz needed treatment on his upper right leg during his straight-set loss to Holger Rune in the Barcelona Open final on Sunday.

“I feel fine physically,” the 21-year-old Spaniard said. “I’ve had tests, and we’ll see what the results say. I’m used to playing with discomfort, so let’s hope I can play and enjoy Madrid.”

Alcaraz, who won in Monte Carlo earlier this month, is expected to have his opening match later this week. He is the No. 2 seed.

Alcaraz won the Madrid title in 2022 and 2023. He is in the same half of the draw as three-time champion Novak Djokovic, the fourth seed.

Cincinnati football player Jeremiah Kelly died unexpectedly at his residence early Tuesday, the athletic department announced.

The school did not disclose a cause of death, and the city of Cincinnati police department did not immediately return a message.

Naomi Osaka’s clay-court season started with a loss in the first round of the Madrid Open against Lucia Bronzetti.The four-time Grand Slam champion stumbled on match point as Bronzetti completed a 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 win before checking Osaka was OK as they approached the net for a post-match handshake.

The U.S. Center for SafeSport fired CEO Ju’Riese Colón in the latest and most visceral sign of a crisis that began after revelations the center had hired an investigator who would later be charged with rape. The center told The Associated Press about Colón’s removal in an email. It brought an abrupt end to a tenure that began in 2019, when she was hired to help the then-2-year-old center, which was established to combat sex abuse in Olympic sports, bring its operation to full speed.
